Just what we need - more bad publicity for Toledo. I wish this city would get it's act together. Carty is trying to remake the city into the solar capital of the US but this isn't helping.

Hopefully we get some green energy here soon

Ohio power plant called a fish 'killing machine' | detnews.com | The Detroit News (http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090303/METRO/903030374/1409/METRO - broken link)

First Energy's coal-fired Bay Shore power plant in Oregon, Ohio, sits near the point where the Maumee River empties into Maumee Bay. It is an area renowned as a spawning ground for fish species, particularly walleye. Many of those fish migrate through the Detroit River into Lake St. Clair and farther northward. Figures the company supplied show the plant kills 126,000 fish a day -- a number environmental groups say is unacceptable.
